Question

Need help solving these problems, work being shown is needed also

Answer 1

Let's start by solving for side y using trigonometric ratios, specifically cosine.

`cos(30)=(y)/(8)`

We can solve for y by multiplying 8 to both sides of the equation.

`y=6.9282`

Let's solve for side x using trigonometric ratios, and this time we'll be using sine.

`sin(30)=(x)/(8)`

Multiply both sides of the equation by 8.

`x=4`

We have solved for the missing variables x and y:

x = 4 and y = 6.9
